h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

ahh see it took me ages to read, I mean most people learn to read the basics when they're 5-6yrs old, I didn't until I was 6-7...whole big long story I will one day write a guide entry on so I don't have to write it out in full again

its weird, everyone normally takes a bit of time to learn, but i picked it up really quickly. writing, however was a different matter. i srtill have atrocious handwriting, and hardly any coordination.

see I didn't learn because, well my school in Aberdeen didn't realise I was struggling, neither did my P1 teacher in Blair, so I didn't even start reading, writing etc until I was late on in Primary two, plus I had a speech inpediment, which meant on top of extra lessons to help me catch up I needed extra lessons for speech therapy, sucks but hey, I survived

ach. dont you hate schools of all kind? cuz i do

yep, but I'm through with school and heading to college now...woohoo!

lucky you. i have another 2 years to go.

hehe it's about the only thing I can do well, what about you, what do you want to do?

cool that's what my mum did after she studied HIstory at Glasgow

it seems to me that everyone studies history to start of with. i am awful at history.

I think history's very poorly taught at high school, the history department in our high was appaulling...where abouts are you in Scotland?

I wasn't too bad at history, but I like usless information.
